Bras

[parodyluvr75]

Some dude, apparently, posted some personals bullshit but it got me thinking about boobs, which, admittedly, isn't hard to do, I asked for help because I had a boob related fight with my babymamma, I received said help, and then the OP deleted the thread, destroying my boob based help.

Rude.

That sucks.

If you can't find her size, get a gift certificate for place with the two sizes you think it is put in a pretty little box with a note that says you want her to pick out her heart's desire because you want her present to be perfect for her and she deserves nothing less.

That's actually super adorable. But I mean, she lives here. I can find out. I'm just not gonna do it right now because she went to bed at like 10 and I don't want to have to ninja in there in the dark to go through her underwear. Because if she wakes up that's gonna look super creepy.

Dayum. That thread got blasted fast. She/he is out. And I had a perfectly lucid (sorta) bra tip in there. Lemme see if I can recreate that post. Check out Lane Bryant, but only their high-end bra line. Their bargain line is shit. They change colors and styles frequently, so check back often. Your gf's 36 frame might be too narrow for a LB bra, but those bras are well built for anyone with a larger ribcage and/or some awesome, big jigglers like mine. When I find one that fits, I buy duplicates and in every color in that line because at 38DDD, I am a tough fit. And I always wonder, like you, why there is a DD and DDD? Why not go from D to E to F? Bra sizing makes no sense to me.

Yes, there are 26 letters. That seems enough to cover the whole range, but then NO women's clothing sizes make sense. Men's pants are in inches, both waist and length. THAT makes sense. But we have to wade through size 1, 2...12, 14 etc., X, XX, XXX and so forth in both small and large, plus sizes from 14 to 34 (sometimes with a W, sometimes not), petites, juniors, women's...eeesh, what a pain.

I think clothing sizes for women are disguised so that men have no idea how big or small we really are. Men, on the other hand, don't seem to care that everyone knows they wear 46 inch waist, 28 inch inseam jeans. Hell, it's printed right on the leather tag thing on the back.

I didn't know you could do that either.

Hmmmm - I thought that was not possible.

OK - well I know that this will be of no immediate help, but maybe for the future. Several years ago I was with a woman that was 34 D/DD (depending on the store). As a gift I got her a fitting at http://myintimacy.com/. They did a whole sizing, fitting, customizing thing and apparently her chest never felt better or more comfortably supported. It was pretty expensive but turned out to be an appreciated gift.

So if you are in the doghouse and looking to get out it is something to think about. There has to be something similar in Louisville or Lexington.

Seriously, you have no idea how inconvenient that is for cross dressers/people who are starting to transition, in an area where hate crime is a thing.

About 80% of the female population wear the wrong size bra.

You can often trick your breasts into a smaller cup size by going up in the band width. But it all depends on the cut of the bra as to what size is needed. A Demi cup fit does not = a minimizer fit.

Oooooh, so is that like, the super version of whatever they did at Victoria's Secret? Are boobs that complex? I thought it was just measure the band and then measure the bustline.

That is exactly what the woman at Intimacy said.

Learning about boob complexity. I guess that makes sense since they're different sizes and shapes and such.

sorry off topic - how do you delete a thread?

you can't. but as the thread was cut & pasted all over lit, dude likely got deleted for spamming. especially if some meany reported him. *cough*

I know, right? It is just so fucking infuriating. They might as well just use random animal names for sizes. "Oh, that dress is so cute. Is it a Size Giraffe or a Size Honey Badger?"

We were there for 2 hours. There is apparently some science to the whole thing. Like Riles said - there is a lot of getting the wrong size and "tricking" the boobs. (I laughed in the store when she said that and it was like farting in church - don't)

Nice! I am going to buy you a drink if I ever get to England

 

[dolf]

I try on dozens of bras before I find one that fits. then I stay with that brand & style, because it's just a hell of a lot easier.

 

[Riles]

It's pretty universal when it comes to fitting a bra once trained. Having sales assistance that is knowledgable of their own line and fit is key. Otherwise it can be trial and error.

The fun really starts with nursing bras when one side is so much more engorged.

And in doing so cost me the only proof I had that I made Sinny Pee squee.

Thanks.

The end.

Jesus Chirist, what were they doing?

Great song title.

It's late and I'm old.

Goodnight.

Jesus Chirist, what were they doing?

She was measured, and interviewed about what she liked and what she was looking for, and then she tried on like 20 bras. She told me later the sales woman kind of felt her up a few times. I was happy because I was periodically invited into the changing room to have a look and she had a magnificent chest.

Oh so that's for the measurement and the shopping. I thought there were like, doing calculations or someshit.

 

[Riles]

At the start of my job of dressing boobs, I was shy about getting hands on for a fitting. But after walking into many a room where a woman was waiting with the top down for my to measure her, I kinda lost my reservations

That being said, don't take odd you're bra for a fitting, the staff are only going to ask you to lift the girls up to get accurate band read.
